When you work with tomatoes in your garden, you will get green Fingers
from these billions of gland-hairs on every organ of the tomato plant !

Gerd... nice graphic composition, interesting subject, and good darkfield. I guess this is where the tomato "smell" also comes from when you handle a plant.
